OTTAWA, Sept. 2. Mr.. Foster, minister Of
marine and fisheries, and Mr.. Thompson.
minister of justice, are mentioned in connec-
tion with Canada's representation az the pro-
posed fisheries convention. The politicians
seem agreed that neither Sir John Macdonald
nor Sir Charles Tupper will act.
Repeating His Denial.
Sir John Macdonald has authorized the
press to repeat his denial of the report that
British troops will be sent to Manitoba to
enforce disallowance of the Red River Val
lev railway charter. He says the remarks
attributed to him are malicious faisehOods.
One More Capture.
ST.. JOHN, N. B., Sept. 2.--The protection
cruiser Intrepid yesterday captured an
American schooner fishing within the three
mile limit, off Campobello, n B., and towed
her into port.
Preparing Their Case.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-The Department
of State is informed by the U. S. consul at
Victoria. b. c., that NJ. Drake, of the firm
of solicitors for the Dominion government,
left there last night for Alaska, by direction
of the Minister of the Interior. 1t is pre-
sumed that brakes mission is connected with
in Alaskan waters.
The Secretary on the Commission.
Secretary Bayard says that whoever may
be accredited by the British government will
come to Washington and will probably be
here as soon as the weather is tolerable.
They will be accredited in the usual form to
the President of the United States, and will
present their credentials to the State Depart
ment Their authorization will be to modify
existing treaties or to agree upon the form of
a new treaty; that he will be prepared to
meet them, and if they desire that there
should be two others associated with him in
the matter they can be appointed, but these
persons in no sense will constitute joint
commission of the character of previous COM
missions that have met in Washington, au-
thorized by previous action Of Congress. But
in point of fact it is not necessary that there
shall be other Commissioners; that he is pre-
pared to negotiate treaty, and to do so with
out assistance, although he would prefer to
have aid
Mr. Bayard is greatly gratified with the
present state of affairs, especially for this
reason: Hitherto all negotiations have been
triangular; any proposition made by the
United States had first to be referred to Eng
land and then to Canada, and then re-referred
to England again. This resulted in inter
minable delay and prevented arriving at any
definite conclusion. Mr.. Bayard expresses
himself very much gratiied tnat, under the
new condition of things he will be able to
deal directly with the representatives both
OF the British government and OF the Cana
dian authorities at one and the same time, so
that whatever agreement they may come to
will be binding upon the British government
and the Dominion Parliament, and, as Mr..
Bayard put it, will only need the sanction of
the Senate and of the President of the United
States
In view of the recent action of the Senate
this single lacking requisite will possibly
prove matter of much Importance before
new treaty is negotiated
